Your best bet is to look at QuickKeys again! Tempo does not work with system
7. I talked to them on June 3 and they said they would have an update in about
a month. They are charging $10 for the upgrade regardless of when you purchased
the product. I mention this because they have contracted a firm call Hi-Tech
to sell Tempo and system 7 as a package, even though they don't work as a
package! I think they are using some pretty poor tactics to dump they
remaining stock on users. When I called Affinity to tell them what I
thought of their marketing tactics Rich (the president) said it was unfortunate
I felt the way I did (about the upgrade policy and the way the new package is
being marketed) but thats the only way a small company could do business.
If you're interested I'll sell you my copy of Tempo and purchase QuickKeys!
